I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at BDO (Jacksonville, FL) in Oct 2017
Interview
It was on campus and pretty chill. It was conducted by a director and a senior associate. The associate lead the interview, even though he was way more nervous than me. The director was pretty laid back and chimed in occasionally. But I liked that they had an associate lead the interview. They both seemed to love me, and I loved them. Everything seemed fantastic on both ends, so I'm puzzled about the fact that I never got a 2nd interview, and why it took 4 weeks to finally get my rejection email. Maybe it's because I didn't follow up the next day. I guess I have to do better next time.

Online Hirevue and then in 1-1 case style interview.

Online hirevue video recording, then you go in for in-person assessment centre where you sit at a table with 5 other applicants and go through a scenario, from there it is a one-on-one interview.
Das Vorstellungsgespräch verlief insgesamt okay. Ich konnte die Fragen beantworten, jedoch wurden teilweise unnötige Fragen gestellt und die Atmosphäre war nicht besonders angenehm. Dadurch wirkte das Gespräch nicht so angenehm.
